Targeting interleukin-17 receptors
During the last decade, increasing evidence suggests a strong association between chronic inflammation and cancer development among different types of cancer. The dysregulation of pro-inflammatory cytokines or their receptors is a common feature observed in many cancers [1]. Cancer cells take advantage of cytokine or cytokine receptor overexpression to

The production and function of cytokines are highly regulated. One mechanism is the balance between pro- and anti-inflammatory cytokines. As interleukin (IL)-17A and IL-25 share the IL-17RA receptor chain, we hypothesize that IL-25 acts as an IL-17A ...

Interleukin-1 blockade in heart failure with preserved ejection fraction: rationale and design of the Diastolic Heart Failure Anakinra Response Trial 2 (D-HART2) [PDF]
Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) now accounts for the majority of con-firmed HF cases in the United States. However, there are no highly effective evidence-basedtreatments currently available for these patients.

Soluble interleukin-2 receptors in ulcerative colitis
T-Cell activation results in the release or shedding of a soluble form (45 kDa) of the cellular (55 kDa) low-affinity interleukin-2 receptor (α-chain) (slL-2R).

Expression of Interleukin-1 and Interleukin-1 Receptors Type 1 and Type 2 in Hodgkin Lymphoma. [PDF]
Signaling through the IL-1-receptor type 1 (IL-1R1), IL-1 is required for initiation and maintenance of diverse activities of the immune system. A second receptor, IL-1R2, blocks IL-1 signal transduction. We studied expression of IL-1beta, IL-1R1, and IL-

Cellular networks controlling Th2 polarization in allergy and immunity [PDF]
In contrast to the development of Th1 (type 1 T helper cells), Th17 and Treg (regulatory T cells), little is known of the mechanisms governing Th2 development, which is important for immunity to helminths and for us to understand the pathogenesis of ...

Staphylococcus aureus enterotoxin B regulates prostaglandin E-2 synthesis, growth, and migration in nasal tissue fibroblasts [PDF]
Background. Superantigens and eicosanoids are important amplifiers and regulators of inflammation in airway diseases. We therefore studied the possible influence of Staphylococcus aureus enterotoxin B ( SEB) on the cyclooxygenase ( COX) pathway and basic

Interleukin-1 in the Response of Follicular Helper and Follicular Regulatory T Cells
The role of interleukin-1 in the regulation of humoral responses is poorly documented, in contrast to its role in inflammation. Recent findings suggest there is an interleukin-1 axis in the follicular T cell control of B cell responses, involving ...
